I am having an S20+ Ultra KSA (Saudi Arabian) variant. Since my specific model's latest android 13 hasn't been released, I am going for the UAE variant's Android 13 ROM. My question is that has the root for SM-G986B running android 13 been released or not yet using MAGISK ?
If you have G988B (Exynos) there should be no prob with Magisk. There are some probs with Snapdragons.
Yes. My phone variant is the international model with EXYNOS CPU. The model is SM-G986B. But there is a catch. Last year when Android 12 was released, the most recent versions of MAGISK at that time were not successfully patching the AP file of the Android 12 ROM. I read it on many forums and I also tried it myself 3 times. Finally JOHN WU of MAGISK had to re-release a new version of MAGISK with some additional modifications in it for rooting the Android 12 AP file. I am wondering if I am going to face such an issue again. What are your thoughts?
Easiest way is to install custom ROM - Beyond, Unbound, Ambasadii... I cannot say if patching AP from official sams. ROM works. You have to try :-(

Like the title asks I want to know if I must update my BL/CP over odin and if so, where are sources to those?
Currently I run Android 6 on my SM-T805 with custom ROM but I want to switch to linage 14.1 (Android 7.x).
Hope that I must not update BL/CP but to be safe it should be done, shouldn't it?
Sice last major update for T805 is Marshmallow, there will be no Nougat BL. Use MM. Yesterday I tried MM BL and it worked with Ressurection remix.

I found BL/CP from 01/2017 and tried LinageOS 14.1 out since it is listed as unofficial LOS ROM and it is working fine - Hope that this will later also support Andorid 8
which should then definitly be the last possible port for this device I think. I mean it is a good one but it is now over 2 (3?) years old and I should search for an equal
ones but this time definitly with NFC support.
Hi! i'm new at the Samsung world, i've always used Nexus phones, that you can install any rom over anything and it will boot, and i really want to install an Android 9 ROM. My question is about compatibility between devices, i have an Argentinian SM-G9600, can i install an android 9 rom for a SM-G960F? i didn't find information about and don't wanna wait for a non-comming update (i'm stuck at september patch.....)
thaks a lot
No.

Your device is a snapdragon model and the G960F is an exynos model
I said 960f just as example, but there's is any variant I can use?

Hi
I'm a proud owner of a BLN-L21 but it is stuck at EMUI 5.0.3 since last year.
How can I update to EMUI 8.0, so I can install ROMs such as Lineage 16.0/Android PIe ones?
Kind regards

Look for BLN-21
Then try the right package for your region.

bln-l21 (nfc) -> bln-l22 (india/chinese variant) = no nfc
Anyone can summarize how to upgrade BLN-L21 UK version (firmware BLN-L21C432B382) to EMUI 8.0 other than converting to Chinese/Indian first please?
If anyone have converted to Chinese from BLN-L21, then let us know how its going? I want to upgrade so that I can put one of the latest ROMS as this is the prerequisite of most ROMS. Thanks
Would this do it - at least its European (German)?

Hi
It seems that the convertion is mandatory. But some more feedbacks than "loosing nfc" would be highly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

Dont think we are loosing anything apart from NFC because that is the only difference we had in region specific models.
BTW there was one more guide to update but that will convert to Chinese version i guess. I guess it was by Khan.

Thx for answering
I suppose forcing the nfc flag to true in the dedicated file .prop doesn't work to regain nfc on Indian or Chinese rebranded ?

I've seen both guide to rebrand to Chinese or Indian version guys, I still wonder which one will offer me more Android 9 custom rom versions. If you have any advice?
Any custom roms will work with nfc? (Android 8 ones?)
Thx for the hard work, your advices and guides are still very helpful in 2021! Just bootloader unlocked and rooted a EU honor 6x. Only paid DC unlocked version get me the unlock code in 2021.
But stick to the thread.... BLN-L21 is losing just nfc to be rebranded, OK. Now any advantage Indian VS Chinese version? Any custom rom for directly the EU version?

I would prefer Indian lme because there are more chances of bricking while moving from Chinese to other versions as there are no custom bin. Once i rebranded to i shuffled easily to EU, US and other variants + custom ROMs

Goog to know about the the Custom bin.
Indian will so be the choice, even if a user had some troubles some days ago using the guide to Indian debrand, maybe it should be updated/corrected :

For G975N there are 3 Android Q firmware versions released by samsung as BSKO, BSL7, and BTA4 from old to newest.
Only kernel source of BSKO is released currently (2020-03-01) which you can find here: https://opensource.samsung.com/uploadSearch?searchValue=g975n
This recovery image is built based on kernel BSKO (G975NKSU3BSKO) and it works with BTA4 firmware so it should work with all these 3 firmware versions.
Note: This image is not Magisk patched yet, if you need magisk to be installed in recovery partition you'd have to patch this image yourself first.
How to use it?

The G97xF version works on G97xN too no need for this thread.
The ones meant for F/FD Variants work on N devices. The only differences are some radio bands and CSC. plus the N Variant being sold as a single sim only just like the F.
Thanks though
long time ago I tried the twrp but not working for my g975n, so I thought it's still not supported.
could you delete this post @admin? thanks.
Thanks for this amazing work !

Hello there!,
Does it mean that I can flash F variants rom on N device? like converting the korean to international?
Is it possible to just flash the F stock rom on my device?
Thanks,

Via custom roms based on ONEUI with patched system and kernel. yes.
Via ODIN, you'd have to do some patching else it won't boot.
Can't exactly remember, but I had an N variant before.
Hi,do someone know a rom that work for SM-J610FN that is based on OneUI,now i'm using a custom rom but i don't feel satisfied with it?(i already tried RadicalQuack but i don't work)
I assume all recent firmware comes with OneUI. My phone has DBT region and currently uses One UI 2
Build J610FNXXS6CUA3 Q(Android 10) (Jan 2021)

Oh, I misunderstood then. I was talking about official Samsung firmware.
Please make One UI 3 rom for J6 Plus
